Lyrics for Song: Dog's Life
Lyrics for Album: Octopus [1972]
Shuffling down the street with his
sideways feet,
Stopping now and then and he'll
stop again,
No doubt in his mind where he's going
He doesn't care for his hair or his teeth
And if the truth were known he's a bit
of a thief,
Innocently lies, and it's showing
Who'd imagine he's man's best friend.
Knowing he's your friend in the end.
Won't be around when you shout
or swear
Not very sorry, he doesn't care;
God knows why we call him old faithful
Pat him on the head, give the dog a
bone;
Use a friendly tone, he won't leave
you alone.
No one understands like old faithful
Early rise. Is it wise?
Wonders happen now and then.
Eats his fill, time to kill,
Then goes back to sleep again.
Trusty slave, bold and brave,
And he roars like a lion
But in fact, it's an act,
And the truth is that he isn't
No one understands it's a dog's life
Chases dreams, so it seems
He shines in his master's light.
Looking good, so he should
For the choice is very narrow
No one understands it's a dog's life
Repeat: Shuffling down the street, etc.
